Intro 1
(E minor)
(G major)
(C major)
(B minor)
I'm (E minor) in a dark
Verse 1
place reaching for the light
Feel alone and lost drinking every night
Forgot (D major) who I was
I've been out of sight
So I'm out of mind almost out of life
This (C major) in toxication ain't
working for me
Swear to God all I wanna do is quit
Waking (D major) up again with a hangover
Yeah I feel like dying but
I'm used to it (E minor)
Tearing me down, day after day
Feel like I'm drowning,
playing with (D major) fate
Talking in clouds,
it's a shame when I pray
I need to get down and take me away
(C major) This is me becoming vulnerable
Because I'm feeling weakness,
I know it ain't (D major) cool
Everyone looking at me to be strong
But I'm only human,
what you want me to (E minor) do?
God, I'm confused
Why am I drinking again?
What's the purpose?
I got some (D major) demons deep
under the surface
Tried to quit so many times, I didn't work
Girl, I don't ex (C major) pect
everything to be perfect
So what am I trying?
So hard to escape
So many secret (D major) s,
been keeping them safe
Don't nobody know me or
what I became
Damn, (E minor) I just wanna
make things right again
And let go of everything
that it might've been
(D major) The devil been knockin' and knockin'
And I could've stopped him,
instead I invite him (C major) in
I'm a sick person,
though this isn't worth it
Only get your verse and listen,
(D major) this is urgent
Tryna picture burden in a different version
(B minor) Only what I'm hurtin' is me
(E minor) I've asked for help,
but I'm killin' myself
You know (D major) I'll keep takin' shots
till there's no liquor on the shelf
When I feel sad (C major) or I feel lonely at the bar
Tell them pour me up an (D major) other one
And take away the pain that I felt
Yeah, I've been (E minor) drowning,
drowning, drowning
Yeah, I've been (D major) drowning,
drowning, drowning
I said, (C major) what is one too many?
Too many's never enough
I admit (D major) that I'm addicted,
I wish I could give it up
I'm killing this (E minor) bottle
cause I'm feeling hollow
Forget what is real till I wake up tomorrow
All the re (D major) grets, I let go of the sorrow
The life is too short and no time is involved
My heart has been (C major) broken,
it's cold and it's frozen
Something's gone spoken,
abused my emotions
I need an es (D major) cape, it's a poison, a potion
It starts with a drink
and the door is just open
So many people (E minor) know just how I feel
But I feel alone if I'm keepin' it real
All of my (D major) homies who do really know me
They only be tellin' me I need to chill
I tell em' I (C major) will
But you know the drill
Always runnin' back to bad habits
Real (D major) ity slippin', I don't wanna grab it
The things that I've been through,
they really are tragic
I (E minor) don't know what it's gonna take
or what I gotta do
For me to put it down
and walk away from the (D major) booze
It's tough on my pride,
I'm givin' you the truth
Like I am no better or different from (C major) you
I'm a hurt person, I'm a damaged soul
I'm an outcast,
I'd rather be alone (D major)
Alcoholism could've been passed
down from my mama
Really, I don't know
Talk (E minor) to somebody, for me it don't help
If the liquor is spirits,
I'm under they spell
I (D major) wanna break free and it's easy to tell
Cause I feel like lately I'm
livin' in hell
You can (C major) judge me if you want to
But I ain't below you or above you
Listen, (B minor) I wrote this song
for anybody who know
what alcohol or drugs do
Now (E minor) I don't never ask for help,
but I'm killin' myself
You know (D major) I'll keep takin' shots
till there's no liquor on the shelf
When I feel (C major) sad or I feel lonely at the bar
Tell em' pour me up an (D major) other one
and take away the pain that I felt
Yeah, I've been (E minor) drowning,
drowning, drowning
Yeah, I've been (D major) drowning,
drowning, drowning
I said, (C major) what is one too many?
Too many's never enough
I admit (D major) that I'm addicted
I wish I could give it up
